A longitudinal study aims to explore the trajectories of MCBAs in relation to islet autoimmunity and type 1 diabetes of children.

Mouth bacteria might play an active role in obesity

Computer models combining oral bacteria, their metabolic functions, and saliva chemicals could better distinguish obese from healthy individuals compared with clinical measurements alone. 

The gut microbiome: emerging therapeutic perspectives in multiple sclerosis and type 1 diabetes

Marika Falcone of San Raffaele Hospital in Milan discusses the growing evidence linking the gut microbiome to extra-intestinal autoimmune diseases.

Gut microbiota can predict who benefits from fiber to prevent diabetes

The effectiveness of dietary fiber in improving blood sugar in prediabetes depends on an individual’s gut microbiota.

Gut bacteria and leucine may determine who benefits from exercise 

The interaction between gut microbes, the amino acid leucine and sIL-6R determines a person’s responsiveness to exercise.

Microbiota, immunity, and the environment: towards an integrated One Health approach

At the 13th Probiotics, Prebiotics and New Foods Congress, Silvia Turroni (University of Bologna) shares insights from the session “The Microbiome and One Health,” which explored how the microbiota bridges…

Sugary drinks may raise diabetes risk by altering gut bacteria

The findings of a recent study suggest a potential role of gut microbiota and microbial metabolites in the link between sugar-sweetened beverages intake and diabetes risk.

Newly discovered microbiota-derived bile acids may help treat metabolic conditions

By suggesting that BA–MCYs can regulate the production of bile acids, the findings of a recent study offer insights for treating metabolic conditions such as diabetes.

Mice study links intestinal bile acids and microbial metabolites to glucose regulation

The findings show that TDCA inhibits LCA production and suggest that it may contribute to the beneficial effects of bariatric surgery on blood sugar levels.
